I Formed The El Cat Investigation Team In Pirates

"So, Keli and the others actually chose the so-called 'Path of Trial'?"

Xie Wen held the vampire fruit in one hand and gently scratched the little puppet's chin with the other, confirming to Robin.

"Yes, yes, the trials inside are quite interesting, nya!"

(=`=)

Without waiting for Robin to answer, the little puppet raised her head so that Xie Wen could more easily scratch her chin, and in her little voice mixed with purring, she enthusiastically told Xie Wen about their trip. Adventure experience.

"... Brother Touma is still as unlucky as before. He always falls into traps for one reason or another. If he hadn't learned Armament Haki, he would have lost at least three or four lives, nya."

Xie Wen looked at the helpless Mr. Kamijou who was standing aside. Compared with the other friends who were just stained with dust at most, the little cow cat looked much more embarrassed. Not only was the simple student uniform on his body already in tatters, , even the hair on his body was bald in several places.

Well, this look is quite in line with Touma Miao’s “cat design”.

"I'm so stupid, really."

(-)

When Ma Miao raised his dull eyes, he continued: "I only know that sister Keli's luck has always been good and there will be no danger, but I didn't know that it was just her exclusive meow..."

"Well……"

Xie Wen also didn't expect that after just an adventure in the ruins, Dangma Meow would have the tendency to turn into Xianglin Meow.

It seemed like he was really hit hard this time.

But think about it, obviously he made the same choice as Kelimiao. As a result, the little puppet had a lot of fun along the way, but in the end, he shouldered everything on his own. It is natural that his mentality will collapse.

Suppressing a smile, he reached out and hugged Touma, who looked shabby, into his arms. Xie Wen took out the "hair growth agent" specially developed for him by Haibara, and applied it to the bald areas while using Kato's Cat Hands gave the unfortunate little fool a full body massage.

Thanks to Xie Wen's superb cat-playing skills, the already big-hearted little cow cat quickly regained its energy.

After collecting the vampire fruit, Xie Wen was not busy reading the hunter's manual. Instead, he and the cats rested for a night in the town of Torrance.

Early the next morning, before leaving, Xie Wen handed the treasure map directly to the village chief of Maloma, and said to her: "If anyone comes to inquire about us in the future, tell the truth, and then give this treasure map to Show it to them."

Although it was a bit sorry for the residents of Torrance Town to unintentionally attract the attention of other pirates, Xie Wen could not stay here to protect them.

Fortunately, the town of Torrance itself is not of much value. The pirates who can catch Xie Wen's whereabouts will probably not value this little resource. If any pirates take a fancy to the land resources here, they plan to take advantage of it. As a resident or something like that...

For the people of Torrance Town, this is not necessarily a bad thing. It mainly depends on the behavior of the pirate group.

As for why they are not allowed to hang the cat's paw flag like Elegia, it is because Elegia has red hair in charge, but Xie Wen has no interest in taking care of and protecting the so-called territory.

Moreover, given the current situation of the El Cat Investigation Team, it is not certain whether hanging the Cat Claw Flag can provide protection or attract more powerful enemies.

Therefore, Xie Wen can only find a way to let the pirates and navy who may come later understand the purpose of his trip, and try not to involve the people of Torrance Town. The rest is to let them ask for more. Blessed.

The village chief of Maloma, who had completely watched Xie Wen and his gang wipe out the entire pirate fleet yesterday, smiled bitterly. At this time, of course she already understood that Xie Wen's identity in front of her was by no means simple, and because of his arrival, Torrance Town was in In the following period, it would be difficult to be as calm as before, but she could not and did not dare to feel any blame.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Wen. Although our town has less contact with the outside world, we still have rich experience in dealing with pirates."

The village chief of Maloma collected the treasure map and thanked him sincerely.

After all, after living for so long, Maloma also knew in her heart that compared to those pirates, Xie Wen's behavior was already very kind and righteous. If it were those pirates who came to look for Devil Fruit this time, they would not be so kind. Talking to them, or even silencing the entire village in order to block the news is very likely to happen.

But Xie Wen not only did not do this, but because he was worried that they would be forced by the pirates who were chasing after them, he took the initiative to keep the clues and evidence. This was more reliable than some navy.

After all, many navies never consider whether there will be subsequent retaliation in the area after wiping out pirates in areas outside their own jurisdiction. They just leave with a pat on the back. If they encounter a navy like Akainu, they will die at the hands of the navy. Perhaps more civilians would die at the hands of pirates than those who died.

After Xie Wen pondered for a moment, he gave the village chief Maloma a phone bug and left his number.

"If the worst happens, I may not be able to come and save you right away, but I can still avenge you afterwards."

There was only so much that Xie Wen could do, and then he took the cats back to the Dudu Forward, and asked the Dudu to switch to the Sky Comet Dragon form and fly towards the White Earth Island, Baldigo.

…

After leaving Torrance for a long distance, Xie Wen made Dudu temporarily stop flying, and switched to the floating dragon form to hover above the clouds.

"Okay, now it's time to see if we can ship the vampire fruit this time!"

Xie Wen first ran to the washroom to rub his face and wash his hands. After returning to the deck, he hugged Kelimiao and took a deep breath before solemnly taking out the hunter's manual.

"Brother Xie Wen, are we going to have a new partner again?!"

(=ω=)

Kelimiao asked excitedly, and other members of the investigation team also gathered around.

"Then you will be disappointed," Xie Wen touched her little head and poured cold water on her. "The animal summoning coupons have been used up a long time ago. It is almost impossible to give a whole summoning coupon with the vampire fruit."

"What a stingy bad book, meow!"

(=`3=)

Kelimiao pouted in disappointment and patted the hunter's manual angrily.

"Brother Xie Wen, what are you talking about?"

Only Bonnie was still confused about this.

"Little Bonnie, what I'm going to tell you next is the top secret of our El Cat Investigation Team. Remember to help keep it secret."

Anyway, Vegapunk has already guessed the origins of the Elu cats, and the relationship between the cats and Bonnie is so good that Dudu even took the initiative to meet Bonnie during the trip to Torrance. So Xie Wen also felt that there was no need to hide it from her.

And judging from her performance in the original comics, Bonnie is definitely trustworthy.

"Yeah, yeah! I promise not to tell anyone else, not even my father!"

Bonnie, who had promised to keep the Dudu number secret before, agreed without any hesitation.

So Xie Wen briefly explained the function of the manual and the origin of the El cats.

"Elu the cat from another world...so cool!"

After listening to Xie Wen's explanation, Bonnie immediately looked back and forth between the Hunter's Manual and Kelimiao with bright eyes, and then nodded her head in understanding, "No wonder, brother Xie Wen, you have been collecting famous swords and demons." fruit."

"Is it really impossible to summon a new Elcat this time?"

After being excited, Bonnie reluctantly confirmed to Xie Wen again: "I really want to see how Keli and the others were summoned by you..."

"The possibility is very low. In the past, only natural fruits could obtain the entire summoning coupon, and now even natural fruits can't do it."

Xie Wen shook his head and replied with the same regret.

The most important thing is that the vampire fruit is the product of a derivative game. According to long-term experience, its "plot weight" is very low. Let alone the entire summoning ticket, I am not sure whether I can get the fragments. .

But he couldn't tell Bonnie for this reason.

"If you are interested, the next time I summon Elu Cat, I will call and ask Big Bear to send you here."

While Xie Wen made a promise to Bonnie, who was a little disappointed, he reached out and opened the hunter's manual in front of him.

Xie Wen didn't know how many times he had read the Hunter's Manual, so he turned to the page of the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book with great accuracy. Of course, the animal category included Bat Fruit, Phantom Beast Species, and Vampire Form. 's illustrated book.

Before Xie Wen could take a closer look at the contents of the illustrated manual, a familiar white light lit up on the manual...

Okay, okay, at least there is a fragment.

Just as Xie Wen was thinking this, a complete follower cat summoning ticket suddenly appeared in the middle of the manual.

"!!!"

This is really an unexpected surprise.

The "plot scepter" of the vampire fruit is indeed not as good as other fantasy beast fruits, but Xie Wen has forgotten that this is the first fantasy beast fruit he obtained, and it has the "first sight" bonus. of.

What's more, this vampire fruit was obtained by Kelimiao, the chosen cat, and found it herself. It also has an additional "destiny" bonus.

Adding the two together, it is not so unusual that a whole summoning ticket will be given.

"Brother Xie Wen! Hurry up and summon your new partner, Meow!"

(=＞＜=)

Under Kelimiao's urging, Xie Wen picked up the minion cat summoning ticket, and then quickly switched it to a blood-red background with a pattern similar to Batman's logo.

"..."

Are you going to summon a Bruce Wayne cat for me? It seems that the master does have a vampire version...

However, after Xie Wen thought about it, there seemed to be nothing wrong with summoning a master cat. Although the master's mental state was somewhat problematic, he was an all-round human/cat who could serve as both a combatant and a scientific researcher. He might still be able to Let him come up with an "anti-Im armor" or something.

Although the thoughts in his head were spinning very fast, Xie Wen's movements on his hands did not lag at all. He held the summoning ticket between his index and middle fingers, raised it in front of him like a Taoist priest using a charm, and then shouted softly: : "Elu Cat, summon!"
